Will Grayson, Will Grayson - John Green and David Levithan

(Finally a full review!)

I've been looking forward to this book for, well, since it was first mentioned. I made sure we pre-ordered it so we could read it as soon as possible. Yet I still had to wait ages to read it because it was delivered to Durham and I had to wait until my family came to visit!

I was going to hold off reading it until my exams were over but I read it within a day of it being brought to Lancaster!

Dear goodness me it was everything I expected it to be and more. Two of my favourite authors of all time came together and created and worked with Tiny Cooper.

I appreciate Tiny Cooper!

The switching between chapters of one Will Grayson to the other was neat. The lack of capitals in David's chapters concerned me at first but I forgot about it as I kept reading; the story, the feelings were far more engaging.

I was won over and could barely put it down to learn my Psychology.

I am definitely going to read it again, probably many a time. It's just coincidence and friendship and love in one eloquent literary bundle. 

5/5

Harry Potter 1-7 - J.K. Rowling (I suppose this counts)

I listened to all of these books while I revised a few weeks ago. It took hours but I sure love Steven Fry's voice.
There is so much I can say about these books. I love them. I love the world that is created, the woven narrative and the moral story.

5/5! (Always!)

So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish - Douglas Adams

These books are so bizarre. Amazing with it but I don't have much to actually say about it.

(While I'm writing this I happen to have on an episode of Celebrity Come Dine With Me. It suprises me as well that I can have such strange tastes in entertainment!)

3.5/5

Life, the Universe and Everything - Douglas Adams

I think this is the one with Bistro Mathematics in it.
I totally loved that concept.

Generally I enjoyed this book (I read it weeks ago but I'm very behind).

3.5/5

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe - Douglas Adams

Well this was another good read, not as good as the first in the series but still full of quirky moments that kept me entertained when I had to wait around at the doctors surgery.

3.75/5 :)

13 Little Blue Envelopes - Maureen Johnson

Well this was a lovely surprise and a well written jovial book.

I read it all yesterday in a few hours while James played Pokémon.

Ginny's way of 'writing' (as she was the narrator) was delightfully sweet and each character was described in such a way that you could picture them but still create parts of them yourself rather than the over analysis of Meyer's fruit and repetitive character descriptions.

One thing I found perplexing was Ginny's lack of experience of some aspects of life, I know it's strange to suddenly be in another country and have to cope with their money but other scenes showed her even more bamboozled than I think she should have been.

Despite that minor flaw I thoroughly enjoyed her adventure and the beautiful conclusion. Although I do have to say that MJ doesn't give a full conclusion to all storylines. I've heard that this is the way she always writes but this time I'm glad because it makes me want to read the sequel much more!

4/5!

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

My re-read of this FANTASTIC book took place during my stay at James' house during this Easter break but I totally forgot to review it!

I go my own set of the first 5 books (the 6th having been written by Eoin Colfer and once I've finished these I'll buy that one!) was gifted to me on my 19th Birthday and the first book (HHGttG) even has it's own "make your own cover" with stickers.
I hasten to add that I will not be using them as stickers for the front of my own book.

Anyhoozle.

It is one of the best books ever, read it.

5/5 bananas.
